The Graces (Charites)

The Three Graces, or Charites, are figures from Greek mythology representing beauty, charm, and joy. They are typically depicted as three elegant sisters—Aglaea ( Splendor ), Euphrosyne (Mirth), and Thalia (Good Cheer)—who embody grace, artistic inspiration, and social harmony. They often appear in art and stories as symbols of celebration and the enjoyable aspects of life. The Graces serve to remind us of the importance of beauty, kindness, and conviviality in human experience, embodying the harmony between beauty and happiness.
